<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> "In the years before "Star Wars: the force awakens"--Cover. Prequel to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, set roughly six years before the events of the film. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b><i>NEW YORK TIMES </i>BESTSELLER - From the author of <i>Star Wars: Lost Stars </i>comes a thrilling novel set in the years before the events of <i>Star Wars: The Force Awakens</i>. <p/>"Unmissable . . . <i>Bloodline</i>'s tense politics, vivid new characters, and perfectly characterized Leia make it feel as central to the <i>Star Wars</i> universe as one of the films."<b>--<i>Tordotcom</i></b><br></b><br>WITNESS THE BIRTH OF THE RESISTANCE<br> <b> </b><br> When the Rebellion defeated the Empire in the skies above Endor, Leia Organa believed it was the beginning to a lasting peace. But after decades of vicious infighting and partisan gridlock in the New Republic Senate, that hope seems like a distant memory. <p/> Now a respected senator, Leia must grapple with the dangers that threaten to cripple the fledgling democracy--from both within and without. Underworld kingpins, treacherous politicians, and Imperial loyalists are sowing chaos in the galaxy. Desperate to take action, senators are calling for the election of a First Senator. It is their hope that this influential post will bring strong leadership to a divided galaxy. <p/> As the daughter of Darth Vader, Leia faces with distrust the prospect of any one person holding such a powerful position--even when supporters suggest Leia herself for the job. But a new enemy may make this path Leia's only option. For at the edges of the galaxy, a mysterious threat is growing. . . . <p/><b>Praise for <i>Bloodline</i></b><br> <b><i> </i></b><br> "[Claudia] Gray paints a much more complete galaxy than we often get to see on the big screen. . . .
